Once you remove the built-in FM radio, then these buttons are crippled and using them will cause the Launcher to crash and reset to the default one.
I did read this and and now, only after weeks, a possible solution strikes me.
If you use my HWOneKey app, you can select an alternative for a number of apps like the Radio app. So you can assign NavRadio to the "BAND" button/option/call. Even the stock launchers "normally" accept this as the same activity call is used. I did not try yet for those new launchers.
Can you try that?

Secondly: Do you know the Frontapp? That one allows you to put any app in the window area without even referring to the radio app.

Un saluto a tutti voi. Sono un nuovo utente Ho un FYT Uis 7862 autoradio installato NAVRADIO + a pagamento e funziona alla grande. Ci vogliono circa 60 stazioni radio e quasi l'80% dei loghi e li salva all'inizio non voleva funzionare correttamente dopo che mi sono procurato un amplificatore di segnale dell'antenna BINGO funziona davvero bene. Complimenti allo sviluppatore per l'app e davvero accattivante la comprerei ancora e ancora.
Voglio solo sapere come sentire la voce di Google maps con la radio. Se uso NavRadio+ e uso Google maps non sento le notifiche vocali dove sbaglio grazie...

Mod translation:
Greetings to all of you. I am a new user I have a FYT Uis 7862 car stereo installed NAVRADIO + paid and works great. It takes about 60 radio stations and almost 80% of the logos and saves them at first it didn't want to work properly after I got a BINGO antenna signal booster it works really well. Kudos to the developer for the app and really eye catching I would buy it again and again.
I just want to know how to hear google maps voice with radio. If I use NavRadio+ and use Google maps I don't hear voice notifications where I'm wrong thanks...

Thanks for your very nice app. I would like to know why I don't hear Google maps notifications together with NavRadio+
I checked the original radio app and it does the same.
NavRadio is muted or lower the volume when maps talk so it shouldn't be a NavRadio problem.
I have no idea why but map is always muted, even with the original radio app.
Can you confirm the same?

Note that on the FYT units you can and sometimes must assign a Navigation app in the Settings. That way, the unit "knows" that when the assigned navigation app "speaks", it has to lower the output of all the other apps.
Please try that.

I did that but i still can't hear any voice from any navigation apps.
Sygic and maps.me that use tts are totally muted even if the radio is not playing.
Maps is muted only if the radio is playing.
I don't know with other players, I'll check that too.
Anything else to check?

We've had this before with all TTS based apps, no matter whether it is a navigation app, google voice or tapatalk or whatever.
I can't remember right now what it was, but I will search.

    I never released a full version that act as mediaplayer because that version cause problems with FCC launcher and is still unstable.
    Right now, after ViVid stopped development for non US countries and because of issue with FCC( the developer of FCC is also disappeared from the scene), the development of such a version is temporarily stopped.
    I'm concentrated now on porting NavRadio to QF01 kind of devices
    All right. No problem.
    I would be grateful if you could consider supporting the full version at a later date.

    KoTiX2 i whant to ask you whant to make a video player ?
    Excuse me but what for? There are many many video players in the market and it would be better that @KoTiX2 would focus on radio app, which is rather niche app.

    Hi, I’ve one idea. In the future I want to build an Arduino FM Tuner with a TEF6686 to connect it via USB to my Android Topway TS10 Radio as background Tuner. Is it possible to get this work with your app because of the AF Function and for a Station list with the available stations in the area. I would very happy if you answer me!
    Kind regards
    My app work/comminucate only with dedicated hardware, in this case the MCU of your TS10.
    It will not work with anything connect to usb...

    Thank you!
    And "Yin_53" is the reseller id? Does that imply where i would find the factory software? I've got a lot to learn, 1st thing I'd like to do is create a full backup or at least find the factory software before i start tinkering, but the Ebay seller is just a re-reseller so they don't have it.
    Maybe things will get clearer as i dive in, but if you have any insights it is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks again

    SOME TIPS AND GUIDES

    - REMOVE ORIGINAL RADIO APP -​
    There are some issues due to original radio app coexistance. To avoid these issues the best option is to remove the original radio app from the system using the FYT_Radio_REMOVER/RESTORER tool availabe here:


    Extract the zip file on the root of a FAT32 USB disk so you have:
    a folder "BACKUP_RADIO_APK"
    a folder "lsec_updatesh"
    a file "lsec6315update"
    a file "lsec6316update"
    a file "lsec6521update"

    With unit powered up and android running, insert the USB and when prompted press "START".
    This will reboot the unit and run some shell commands to rename the original radio app from "******_com.syu.radio.apk" into "*******_com.syu.radio.bak" so it will not be found by android.
    You will see some linux commands scrolling and at the end you'll see a green text "update success!Pls remove device". Do it and the unit will reboot to android with radio disabled.
    The script will also make copy of the original radio app on the USB in the folder "BACKUP_RADIO_APK" in case you need it in the future.

    TO RESTORE THE ORIGINAL APP
    Simply insert again the USB with same files in it and let the process run again.

    Essentially everytime the USB stick is inserted, it remove the original app renaming it with .bak extension or if the .bak file exist it restore it back with .apk extension.
    You can use it as many times you want.



    -----------------------------------------------------------------------​

    TOGGLE SCREEN NORMAL/FULL:
    - Double Click on the station information toggle fullscreen on/off.

    NORMAL SCREEN:
    - Long press on the station information popup the "ADD Station" dialog window if the station is not in your station list. If it's already in your list, it will focus the relative station button.
    - Long press on a station button bring up the "EDIT Station" dialog window
    - Single press on screen arrows <> does a small frequency step fwd/back
    - Long Press on screen arrows does a quick search fwd/back

    FULLSCREEN MODE:
    - A Single press of the arrows <> switch to next/previous station
    -A Long press on station information(center of the screen) bring up the "EDIT Station" dialog window.
    - In interface settings you can remove the big frequency in background if a logo is available.
    - In settings you can hide status bar, activate the clock and a speed gauge

    STEERING WHEELS CONTROLS:
    - The steering wheels commands act exactly in the same way as the fullscreen arrows, they just need to be setup in the correct way in carsettings application.

    FAVORITE LIST:
    - The FAV list is the result of merging FM and AM favorites, so you can have both frequencies in the same list.
    - FAV stations can be edited within the fav list but cannot be added. You need to be on fm or am list to add a station and set it to favs.
    - Deleting the FAV list will just remove the fav flag from the fm/am stations but will not delete them.
    - Deleting AM/FM list it will delete the FAV list too.

    LOGOS:
    - you can use your own station logos, you just need to know where you have them stored and browse for them when editing a station.
    - To get the stations Logos from the app you have to set the nationality of the logos in the interface menu, download and extract them.
    Once they are extracted you have to edit each saved station to assign the logo image to it.
    - The automatic assignment of the Logos is based on the RDS id of the radio stations (pi code) and the search of the logo by RDS name.
    The first method (by id) is faster and more precise but it needs that the name of the logo contain the picode of the station and for this purpose i renamed them for some of the available countries. Of course i cannot make them all and the functionality of this method depend of the availability of correctly named logo images for your country.
    The second method (by name) is less accurate and it work comparing the RDS name with all available logos. If the rsult of the comparison is 100% correct the logo is autoamatically assigned. If the result are more then one logo, a dialog window popup asking you to choose it.
    For USA and Canada the assignment of the logo is is done by searching the frequency of the station in the logo file name.

    AF (Alternative Frequencies) handling: (Doubleclick to switch between stored AF)
    AF service allows the radio tuner to tune in to an alternative frequency when the signal becomes too weak. The minimum level signal can be set in factory settings (Auto Search Stop) and has been found
    that around 30 db is the best choice.
    To improve even more this service I added an automatic storing of the alternative frequencies so that every time a new frequency is received, it's added in a list.
    After an autoscan some radio stations can be found on different frequencies, NavRadio+ have an option (in Settings/radio) to automatically merge the frequencies in just one button populating the AF list
    The frequencies available in this list can be selected using the station editor or switched one by one DOUBLECLICKING on the station button.

    NOTES:
    I'm the only developer of the app and I work on it every single day for some hours a day.
    I try my best to develope the app at best of my possibilities and I wish at evey release that it is bug and crash free.
    This is very hard to achieve, even if I have some very good friends that help me testing it.
    I'm really thankful to them for their help and support.

    Thank everybody who beleive in my work and thanks for understanding. :)

    I want to share some news about NavRadio+ that missed to write beacuse of lack of free time.

    The first news is about the official latest version on Google PlayStore (2.84) where the main change is the addition of a Carousel Introduction guide that show up only at first run after installation and help the new users to set permissions, choose the radio region and explain a bit the first steps through the app.
    More than 2 months ago i uploaded NavRadio+ on Huawei Appgallery so that Russian people and all others from countries where the PlayStore is not available, could buy the app.

    In the last 3 weeks NavRadio has been rejected by Huawei Appgallery and the full version is not available anymore.
    I'm working hard to make it acceptable by the Appgallery rules and I already contacted the Devs support hoping to come to a solution soon.

    The last news is specially directed to all my betatesters.
    I uploaded a version named 2.85_Vivid that makes NavRadio act as a mediaplayer so it can work with Vivid and all other launchers using all the mediaplayer controls and mediasession.
    In this particular version I fixed the compatibility with FCC launcher that had problems.
    To use this version with Vivid launcher, it's mandatory to use a special version of Vivid too:
    Launcher-5.10.3466.apk

    I encourage everybody to test this build as much as they can with any launcher and report me any sort of bug.
    I'd like to make this version the new default one so I need it to be tested well.

    If a paid user would like to become a betatester to get access to this build, please send me by email the proof of you purchase and your gmail.

    Thx everybody who'd like to help
    😉
